Most of eye disorders are tired of wearing glasses all day long or are bothered with seeing nothing without glasses. They have to wear special glasses when doing sports and they are considered as being impolite for not saying hello to friends. These are all the troubles encountered by the eye disorders. Now these problems can all be settled with the appearance of Laser eye surgery. No matter how deep the degree of your glasses, you can do this surgery.
Laser eye surgery mainly has two types - LASIK and LASEK. The latter is more suitable for those with thin or flat corneas while the case of LASIK is the opposite.
Though the eye surgery is popular among the eye disorders, there is still something the surgery cant deal with. So you must know the details about the surgery before going to do the operation.
The laser used in the surgery must have been strictly tested. Only those which can cut 0.25 microns of tissue per pulse can be applied to correcting eyesight. Furthermore, you should make sure which area of the cornea is fit for being reshaped.
Not everyone suits for the Laser eye surgery actually. Only the problems of myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism can be corrected well. So if you are in these cases, Laser eye surgery is the best choice, I promise.
You need not to worry about the food that you eat in daily life will affect the result of the surgery, so you can enjoy your food as usual. Ophthalmologist will drip some anesthetic on your eyes before operation, so you will certainly run out of being hurt. However, if you wear contact lenses, you should take them off a week before operation in case the cornea is misshaped. Moreover, people who have the problem of gas permeability need to take off contacts up to four weeks.
Laser eye surgery can be finished within half an hour, and it hardly hurts patient. Nevertheless, its not permitted that you drive home alone right after the surgery. So ask someone to company with you to take you home safely.
